Plan a trip for at least seven days, allow time to acclimatize. Plan for frequent breaks, take 5-10 min breaks every one hour of the trek or every two hours of automobile ascent, it said.
Practice breathing exercises for 5-10 minutes daily. Walk daily for 20-30 minutes, the advisory stated. If 55 years of age or have a history of heart disease, asthma, hypertension, or diabetes, get a health check-up done to ensure fitness for the trip.
